And I must say: this Everest strap rocks hugely. As does my vanguard, which I just bought. Had to return the RubberB because it fit silly weird.

Jake, looking at your bio reminds me of one of my favorite books of all time, the omnivores dilemma

Wow, totally beautiful scenery! Cool watch, too. The closest I ever get to Maui is watching the PGA Tournament of Champions, lol, so many thanks for sharing!

WOW! So lucky my wife called ahead before our last trip to Maui in Feb 2020, just before the lockdown. We were able to enjoy Momma's twice that visit, and as usual, it was glorious.

You're welcome and the Sashimi Napoleon is killer!

Enjoy!

It’s the best all-around reference for me and my beach watch of choice.

Trilogy is a catamaran cruise company. They do fabulous sunset cocktail cruises and snorkeling excursions. I highly recommend them. https://sailtrilogy.com/

I also highly recommend eating at Kimos (best Maitais imo) , Leilani's, and Hula Grill.

Shaka brotha... Rob is the main bartender at Kimos and a hell of a guy. You can probably get a seat at the bar and drink Mai Tais if you get there around 4 (they do walk-ins) but you gotta go early. Then either wait for a table to open up or just eat at the bar.

There are "MaTais" and then there are Mai Tais. If you want an authentic Mai Tai you need to choose carefully. Look at the menu: Quite often there will be "Mai Tai" which is a house drink and "Original Trader Vic Mai Tai" which may or may not be the real deal (Hint: There is no pineapple juice in a Mai Tai). If you want sicky sweet with a run float go to Kimo's. Want a real one go to Japengo.

Well heck, don't forget about the AD's! One in Lahaina at Whalers Village and one at Wailea. North of Napili (where the blowhole is) is definitely worth a day. Lots of little cool places to stop.

Hana is cool but start the day early as there are also a lot of cool places to stop but if you are caught out after dark the road is darker than the inside of cow.

Great watch spotting at the Ritz in Napili. Awesome breakfast buffet too and a generally nice spot to spend a day if you are not staying there. Beautiful coastal trail from there as well.
